I'm still not arguing that this is the most brilliant idea, but I can totally imagine a Serbian professor wanting to "auto-generate" a Cyrillic version of his book on top of the Latin edition with close-to-zero extra effort.
Ok, I can see that this may be a convenient way of producing different output from the same source; I wasn't aware of this (and I was somewhat provocative about Latex, of course :-) From a conceptional point of view, it still feels a bit hackish to do these things on the font level, because they are not/should not be tied to specific fonts - you'd have to rewrite your features or goodies or whatever they are called now for every font you want to use (and you may run into a number of funny inconsistencies in character names or even unicode slots).
